You work as the help desk support technician at Domain.com. The Domain.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Domain.com.
A user named Mia Hamm reports that her Windows XP Professional client computer is unable to connect to any network resources. Mia Hamm informs you that she reported this problem to another technician earlier today, who made a change to her TCP/IP configuration. Mia Hamm’s computer is still, however, unable to connect to any network resources.
The exhibit below shows the new TCP/IP configuration for Mia Hamm’s computer.
After a brief investigation, you confirm that the TCP/IP address of Mia Hamm’s computer is valid for the subnet that contains her computer. The Domain.com network does not include a DHCP server.
Which of the following is the action that you should perform to make sure that Mia Hamm’s computer is able to connect to network resources?
A.
Configure the computer to use the correct IP addresses of the DNS servers on the network.
B.
Configure the computer to obtain an IP address automatically.
C.
Instruct Mia Hamm to run the ipconfig /registerdns command.
D.
Instruct Mia Hamm to run the ipconfig /renew command.
Explanation:
Without at least one properly configured IP address to a DNS Server you will not be able to perform name resolution (translation of Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) addresses to IP addresses.) and therefore you will not be able to connect to any resources on the network.
